I have found a few new house guests, for some of them I have been looking for a long time, so I am quite pleased with myself !I prefer my house guests to be small to start with and to stay small if possible so I can have many different ones.
AGAVE STRICTA, ISN’T HE CUTE !!! BUT HE IS PRICKLY !!!
SANSEVIERA FERNWOOD MIKADO, QUITE A MOUTHFULL HEY ! AND SHE HAS PUPS!
THIS ONE IS A FICUS ELASTICA ABIDJAN ACCORDING TO THE LABEL BUT I AM NOT SURE ABOUT IT. IT LOOKS LIKE AN ORDINARY FICUS ELASTICA BUT IT IS SMALLER IN EVERY WAY.
HAWORTHIA ATTENUATA AND IT HAS A PUP !
HAWORTHIA LYMIFOLIA TWIST, IT HAD A PUP GROWING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE POT
THIS ONE IS A MELOCACTUS MATANZANUS, THE RED HAT NEEDS AT LEAST 5 YEARS TO GROW
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST AN AUSTRO CYLINDROPUNTIA
Great Plants! I still have to pick up some of those Agaves that you have. My Haworthia are all blooming right now—the carpenter bees LOVE ‘EM. I appreciate how you’ve shown them as singular specimens. Very nice! I don’t often move many of my potted plants because they are so vicious—but, perhaps I should do so for photos because they look very regal that way. Great Job!!
Thanks ! You can see my indoor collection of cacti and succulents on my “before and after” post if you like.
I love your idea of houseguests LOL…. they never complain, never overstay their welcome.
yes but some of them can be really prickly (lol)
What a nice collection of new friends. I like mine to start small, then grow and multiply.
The fun for me is in the growing. I’m about to take my friend Miss Winnie a small Begonia in a lightweight pot. She gave me some cumbersome pots she could not manage. I’m so pleased with this Begonia and it will be perfect for her.
I like to give plants to friends and relatives hoping they’ll start gardening, as gardening is fun and good for you and for nature and wildlife ofcourse.
I like the twisted plant best, though they are all really beautiful. its a rare talent to be able to look after so many plants (and no have them die along the way 😦 ) i hope i can grow my garden like this some day.
looking after plants is not so hard you know and you have to learn with ups and downs, I too killed a lot of plants in my life but you learn from it and try to do it better next time
loving all your plants and pots. you are a true artist!!!
OF COURSE I LOVE THEM ! you are so lucky and a good photographer too. Beautiful new family.
Easy care, singing my houseplant song!
thank you for visiting my OOMMI blog, your plants are quite diverse and beautiful and you’re very knowledgeable!!!
I hope you have a great weekend too! The plants look lovely – ditto your entire collection actually – although I must admit I threw out my Agave stricta when it got big as it was decidedly dangerous. I probably regret it now but I also threw out some tender Yuccas (these were impossibly sharp) and a couple of Opuntias.
They look really great, particularly like the last one.
thanks !
WOW! I love them all! I may just have to get some 🙂 ~maria
